But like I said, it should not be something thats rare in a "Only the elite troops use advanced weapons" sort of way, it should be even rarer. Using an advanced weapon should be a big thing. Something that a child would later read in a fairy tale. (Note that most fairy tales in fantasy are real)

Or honestly, don't try too hard to complicate things, remember where returning to the age of fire and steel with a few twists.

30. All bumbling conjurers, clumsy squires, no-talent bards, and cowardly thieves in the land will be preemptively put to death. My foes will surely give up and abandon their quest if they have no source of comic relief.

Kidding... but ya, seeing as this is earth it means all created races will have to be able to handle an Earth like atmosphere...

But who specifically would have trouble breathing?

*Necro ducks into some rubble as a low hum fills the air. A large UFO with a crown on it passes silently over them, a search light swiveling below it looking for something. A few seconds later it passes overhead and disappears behind some ruins.*

Ok, that was close.

Countless fantasy realms get away with the fact that so many creatures, some of them not even native to the world can exist in the same biosphere.

In other words, more ridiculous stuff has been pulled off before.

Oh man, I lol'd hard.

Don't worry, this is fantasy. It isn't supposed to make sense by definition. If it did, the whole world economy would be like Egypt after Mansa Musa. I'm totally fine with it.

I take it that we'll be more in the realm of fantasy than sci-fi for this, right?

Yup.

Maybe a little Sci-fi here and there.

Now, the kicker to all this is that Auralon is actually Earth and the Sky Giants where Humans (Common-Folk call them Sky Giants, the educated call them Humans. And the reason Humans gained the nickname “Sky-Giants” was because apparently where much taller than we originally thought. A full grown Photos would only reach up to a just above a Humans kneecap. This is subject to change if no one really wants this.)

the first rp is in europe, right? probably the best place to include the most settings and races. do it.

then we can go to north africa heh...

I had originally planned Washington DC because I had took a trip there recently and thus had an easier time visualizing it.

Everyone is "starting" in Europe/Asia/Africa to keep the politics easy. They know the Americas exist though, but there not completely mapped.

But maybe we'll go to Paris, or London, or Rome. *shrug* location isn't much of a problem.
